DACOR’S 4 - PART PURE CONVECTION™ SYSTEM

Dacor’s Pure Convection™, simply the very best convection system available today, it is a total approach to cooking.

Use this cooking mode when preparing complete meals, and for single or multi-rack baking and roasting. Temperatures can be set in five- degree increments, from 100-555˚F.

Direction of Air Flow

While many convection ovens simply heat air with two elements in the oven chamber, Dacor’s Pure Convection™ system utilizes a third heating element. It surrounds the convection fan, located out- side the oven’s cooking area. Additionally, a filter and baffle sepa- rate the food from the oven’s heat source. The filter purifies the heated air circulating throughout the oven, maintaining an extreme- ly clean cooking environment. The baffle channels the heated air, circulated by the convection fan, evenly throughout the oven.

With Dacor’s Pure Convection™ cooking mode the rear heating element is the oven’s heating source. The convection fan draws air from the oven chamber. It forces the air through the filter and across the hot convection-heating element. The heated air is direct- ed back into the oven chamber, through the convection baffle. The baffle then distributes the heated air evenly throughout the oven to ensure uniform cooking results

(See figure 1).

The externally heated air, constantly moving throughout the oven, allows many foods to cook in 10% less time and at temperatures 25° lower....saving you both time and money.

Dacor’s 4-Part Pure Convection™ system makes complete meal multi-rack cooking a natural, everyday occurrence. Foods will cook evenly, from one rack to another, while the system’s filter eliminates the transfer of food flavors/aroma from dish to dish. The filter also keeps your oven cleaner, longer. Please refer to this drawing to ensure a recipe’s proper rack position. Rack positions are recommended throughout the book.
